Legally-Themed Racehorse Names? Your Nominations, Please

Affirmed race horse racehorse.JPGRecently we've been thinking about law-related names for racehorses. The subject came up when we were reading about how Big Brown, the 2008 Kentucky Derby winner, might win the Triple Crown and join the company of Affirmed (pictured) -- the last winner of the Triple Crown, in 1978.

Hearing about a racing horse named "Affirmed" led us to start thinking about other legally-themed horse names. A few ideas:

-- "Reversed" (or "Reversed and Remanded")

We liked how it played off of "Affirmed." But it's "probably not the kind of message you want to send to the oddsmakers," said a friend.

-- "Cert Denied"

Kinda badass, no? We'll put it down as a possibility.

-- "GVR"

Suggested by another friend, to continue on the Supreme Court disposition theme. "GVR" stands for "Grant, Vacate, and Remand" -- which can, depending on the circumstances, be something of a benchslap. But maybe it's too technical, appreciated only by SCOTUS junkies?

-- "Desuetude"

Nominated by a third friend (in the midst of studying for law-school finals). It's erudite, but a bit short on sex appeal.

Have an idea for a law-related racehorse name, à la Affirmed? If so, feel free to leave it in the comments. If we get enough nominations, maybe we'll hold a contest. Also, feel free to weigh in on the names previously mentioned, if you strong feelings about any of them.

Update: Please make sure that your nomination complies with these naming rules (posted by a helpful commenter).

Further Update: Okay, we've reached the 400-comment mark on this post, so we're closing the thread. Poll to follow shortly.

More about racehorses and the law, after the jump.

Here's a different legal angle on horse racing and the law. Chris Barnstable-Brown -- one of the Kentucky Derby's most powerful people, as an organizer of one of its top parties -- is a law student. And he's apparently a rather good law student, since he's going to be working at Cravath and clerking for the Sixth Circuit. See here.

Barnstable-Brown will be especially valuable as a clerk if the Sixth Circuit ever gets another case about permissible names for racehorses. As you may recall, in 2007 the court ruled in favor of the Jockey Club, which successfully prevented a horse owner from naming his filly "Sally Hemings."

Update: Here's a third legal angle on the Kentucky Derby and horse racing, from the WSJ Law Blog:

Did Eight Belles, the Kentucky Derby contender (pictured) that was euthanized on the track minutes after breaking both front ankles, suffer a more humane fate than Kentucky's death-row inmates? That was the question raised on Friday, when Justice Stevens, speaking to lawyers and judges in Chattanooga, said he was surprised that Kentucky law prohibits killing animals with one of the drugs in a three-drug cocktail whose constitutionality was affirmed last month by the High Court in Baze v. Rees.

P.S. This is admittedly a bit random; we should have written about it last Monday, right after the Kentucky Derby. So we thank you for your indulgence.

Update: Okay, we've reached the 400-comment mark on this post, so we're closing the thread. Poll to follow shortly.

@6:43 pm:

Here are the naming rules--I don't see the 18 "letters/spaces/characters max" rule you allude to.

"6. NAMING

A. A name may be claimed on the Registration Application, on a Name Claiming Form or through Interactive RegistrationTM at registry.jockeyclub.com. Name selections should be listed in order of preference. Names will be assigned based upon availability and compliance with the naming rules as stated herein. Names may not be claimed or reserved by telephone. When a foreign language name is submitted, an English translation must be furnished to The Jockey Club. An explanation must accompany "coined" or "made-up" names that have no apparent meaning. Horses that were born in the United States, Puerto Rico or Canada and currently reside in another country must be named by The Jockey Club through the Stud Book Authority of their country of residence.

B. If a valid attempt to name a foal is submitted to The Jockey Club by February 1 of the foal's two-year-old year and such a name is determined not eligible for use, no fee is required for a subsequent claim of name for that foal. If a valid attempt to name a foal is not submitted to The Jockey Club by February 1 of the foal's two-year-old year, a fee is required to claim a name for such a foal (see Fee Schedule).

C. A reserved name must be used within one year from the day it was reserved. Reserved names cannot be used until notification requesting the assignment of the name to a specific horse is received by the Registry Office. If the reserved name is not used within one year from its reservation, it will become available for any horse. A fee is required to reserve a name (see Fee Schedule).

D. A foal's name may be changed at any time prior to starting in its first race. Ordinarily, no name change will be permitted after a horse has started in its first race or has been used for breeding purposes. However, in the event a name must be changed after a horse has started in its first race, both the old and new names should be used until the horse has raced three times following the name change. The prescribed fee (see Fee Schedule) and the Certificate of Foal Registration must accompany any request to the Registry Office for a change of name.

E. Names of horses over ten years old may be eligible if they are not excluded under Rule 6(F) and have not been used during the preceding five years either in breeding or racing.
Names of geldings and horses that were never used for breeding or racing may be available five years from the date of their death as reported.


F. The following classes of names are not eligible for use:
1. Names consisting of more than 18 letters (spaces and punctuation marks count as letters);
2. Initials such as C.O.D., F.O.B., etc.;
3. Names ending in "filly," "colt," "stud," "mare," "stallion," or any similar horse-related term;
4. Names consisting entirely of numbers. Numbers above thirty may be used if they are spelled out;
5. Names ending with a numerical designation such as "2nd" or "3rd," whether or not such a designation is spelled out;
6. Names of persons unless written permission to use their name is on file with The Jockey Club;
7. Names of "famous" people no longer living unless approval is granted by the Board of Stewards of The Jockey Club;
8. Names of "notorious" people;
9. Names of racetracks or graded stakes races;
10. Recorded names such as assumed names or stable names;
11. Names clearly having commercial significance, such as trade names;
12. Copyrighted material, titles of books, plays, motion pictures, popular songs, etc., unless the applicant furnishes The Jockey Club with proof that the copyright has been abandoned or that such material has not been used within the last five years;
13. Names that are suggestive or have a vulgar or obscene meaning; names considered in poor taste; or names that may be offensive to religious, political or ethnic groups;
14. Names that are currently active either in racing or breeding, and names similar in spelling or pronunciation to such names, see 6(E);
15. Permanent names and names similar in spelling or pronunciation to permanent names. The list of criteria to establish a permanent name is as follows:
a. Horses in racing's Hall of Fame;
b. Horses that have been voted Horse of the Year;
c. Horses that have won an Eclipse Award;
d. Horses that have won a Sovereign Award (Canadian Champions);
e. Annual leading sire and broodmare sire by progeny earnings;
f. Cumulative money winners of $2 million or more;
g. Horses that have won the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Belmont Stakes, The Jockey Club Gold Cup, the Breeders' Cup Classic or the Breeders' Cup Turf; and
h. Horses included in the International List of Protected Names.

G. In addition to the provisions of this Rule 6, the Registrar of The Jockey Club reserves the right of approval on all name requests. "

"Void for Vagueness" is not available as it is the Famous Name of a world class trivia team at the U.of Chi. L. S. in the early 90's. Is that you former team mates?

Kash: Hey Lat, how can we get a lot of posts and up ad revenue?

Lat: Why don't we think of some rouse for asking our readers to list all of the legal terms they know?

The real challenge is to name offspring of two of these legally-named horses (often, a foal's name will be formed by a play on words or a combination of its sire's and dam's names). Thus, a foal sired by LongHandOfTheLaw and dropped by Judge Dread could be named "Judge Hand."

Kash: Hey Lat, how can we get a lot of posts and up ad revenue?

Lat: Why don't you show your tits?

Kash: Why don't you show your man-gina?

Lat: Ok, why don't we think of some rouse for asking our readers to list all of the legal terms they know?
